Hi,
This is so not true. It is entirely possible to get Herpes 2 in more than
one place at the same time: I know, because I have Herpes 2 genitally AND on
the palm of my hand (called Whitlow).
Any more questions?

But I read that people who get Herpes 2 on their mouth don't get it on
their genitals and vice versa. So while it's not the most ideal
solution, it might be better than nothing if it was possible to infect
a small place on your arm or something and then cover it for weeks
until your body developed anti-bodies. This might be better then
getting a full blown case of it in the genital region.

They might want to see if this sort of pseudo-vaccination works. The
same thing could be true for wart and cancer causing HPV. Couldn't
they just infect you with it in a place where you wouldn't get warts
or cancer, and then your body would develop anti-bodies, and then you
wouldn't be able to get oral, genital, or anal warts or cancer.
